I'm curious since so many of us received an e-mail asking if we had yet received/reviewed _The White Mary_ (yes, I have it; no, I haven't yet read/reviewed :( )Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359999156621466745.post-32364506012467092512008-06-30T18:12:00.000-04:002008-06-30T18:12:00.000-04:00Sounds very interesting.

She talks about how she learned their language, developed a way to write it down and how the villagers helped her translate the bible into their language. It was very interesting - including some quite unique experiences.Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18367224314611582086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359999156621466745.post-66154821053177563392008-06-30T05:46:00.000-04:002008-06-30T05:46:00.000-04:00So looking forward to this!So looking forward to this!Lenore Appelhanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16664671644163369772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359999156621466745.post-36988720648255796902008-06-28T10:44:00.000-04:002008-06-28T10:44:00.000-04:00I like your take on Seb.
